Point 3: “Sushi Tsumugi” – This is the only one you should try! What is your recommended menu?
In addition to the fact that the rice is red vinegar, Sushi Tsumugi’s sushi is different from others in many ways.
For example, the “negitoro” is usually served as a gunkan maki, but it is served as nigiri. The chef’s performance in making this sushi is also a highlight, as if he is enjoying the unexpected act of making nigiri instead of gunkanmaki.
The “Yaki Saba no Kosomaki” (grilled mackerel wrapped in kosode) is a dish that at first glance may seem confusing, but it is actually mackerel wrapped with shiso leaves, ginger, and other ingredients, then seared on the surface with charcoal. This dish is served at the end of the course, and the performance of holding the charcoal close to the sushi is fun to watch.
The “Crab Miso-Wrapped in Kelp with Miso Sauce and Shrimp on Kelp” is a dish that is not only a surprise to have crab and shrimp at the same time, but also shows delicate craftsmanship in the way the crab is wrapped in kelp and the button lobster is sashimi, with shaved oboro kelp on top.
The concentrated flavor of the crab and shrimp! Three different kinds of kelp are used at once, and the subtle differences in flavor are impressive!
